What is this light that shines before me
What is this force that pulls me in
Why has the fight fled from my fingers
What brought me to this place again
I'd come to you but that's a long reach
And I could get blinded by the light
I'm tethered down stuck to the wrong leash
Naive enough to be polite
No I'm not strong enough to hold us up
I'll hang on long enough to help us out
No I'm not scared enough to pull the plug
But I'm afraid enough to let it out
I'll take the blame I slept right through the clock
Sweet dreams pushed my head right back to bed
You set the table while I stir the pot
I hear your voice in my head
Maybe you're glued in place believing
That the past determines what's ahead
Maybe you just can't find a reason
To drive these demons outta your den
White knuckling the steering wheel don't let go
There's precious cargo in the back
You cut the brake lines off the railroad
And drove the train right off the track
No I'm not strong enough to hold us up
I'll hang on long enough to help us out
No I'm not scared enough to pull the plug
But I'm afraid enough to let it out
I'll take the blame I slept right through the clock
Sweet dreams pushed my head right back to bed
You set the table while I stir the pot
I hear your voice in my head
No I'm not strong enough to hold us up
I'll hang on long enough to help us out
No I'm not scared enough to pull the plug
But I'm afraid enough to let it out
I'll take the blame I slept right through the clock
Sweet dreams kept pushing my head right back to bed
You set the table while I stir the pot
I hear your voice in my head
